AMD today announced revenue for the second quarter of 2023 of $5.4 billion, gross margin of 46%, operating loss of $20 million, net income of $27 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.02. On a non-GAAP basis, gross margin was 50%, operating income was $1.1 billion, net income was $948 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.58.

"We delivered strong results in the second quarter as 4th Gen EPYC and Ryzen 7000 processors ramped significantly," said AMD Chair and CEO Dr. Lisa Su. "Our AI engagements increased by more than seven times in the quarter as multiple customers initiated or expanded programs supporting future deployments of Instinct accelerators at scale. We made strong progress meeting key hardware and software milestones to address the growing customer pull for our data center AI solutions and are on-track to launch and ramp production of MI300 accelerators in the fourth quarter."




"We are pleased with our second quarter execution," said AMD EVP, CFO and Treasurer Jean Hu. "Looking to the third quarter, we expect our Data Center and Client segment revenues to each grow by a double-digit percentage sequentially driven by increasing demand for our EPYC and Ryzen processors, partially offset by Gaming and Embedded segment declines."

Quarterly Segment Summary

  • Data Center segment revenue was $1.3 billion, down 11% year-over-year primarily due to lower 3rd Gen EPYC processor sales as Enterprise demand was soft and Cloud inventory levels were elevated at some customers.
    • Revenue increased 2% sequentially, as 4th Gen AMD EPYC CPU revenue nearly doubled and EPYC CPU Enterprise sales increased, partially offset by a decline in adaptive System-on-Chip (SoC) data center products.
    • There are now more than 670 AMD-powered cloud instances publicly available.
    • AMD Instinct MI300A and MI300X GPUs are sampling to leading HPC, Cloud and AI customers.
  • Client segment revenue was $998 million, down 54% year-over-year due to reduced processor shipments resulting from a weaker PC market and a significant inventory correction across the PC supply chain.
    • Revenue increased 35% sequentially as AMD Ryzen 7000 Series CPU sales grew significantly, and PC market conditions improved.
    • More than 100 AMD-powered commercial PC platforms are set to launch this year.
  • Gaming segment revenue was $1.6 billion, down 4% year-over-year. Semi-custom revenue grew year-over-year, which was more than offset by lower gaming graphics revenue.
    • Revenue declined 10% sequentially primarily due to lower gaming graphics sales.
  • Embedded segment revenue was $1.5 billion, up 16% year-over-year primarily driven by strength in the Industrial, Vision and Healthcare, Automotive and Test and Emulation markets.
    • Revenue decreased 7% sequentially primarily driven by softness in the Communications market.
    • The new AMD Versal Premium VP1902 adaptive SoC, Spartan Ultrascale+ FPGAs and enhanced versions of the Vivado and Vitis software platforms are expanding AMD's adaptive computing product leadership.

Recent PR Highlights

  • At the Data Center and AI Technology Premier event, AMD announced the expansion of its leadership data center portfolio and shared details on its next generation AMD Instinct accelerator and software enablement for generative AI:

    • Cerebras unveiled the Condor Galaxy 1 cloud-based AI supercomputer, enabled by more than 70,000 AMD EPYC CPU cores. Initial applications for the system include LLM training, healthcare and climate research.
    • AMD announced the release of the new AMD ROCm 5.6 open software platform, featuring enhanced capabilities for AI and HPC workloads, including new AI software add-ons for large language and other models, performance optimizations across the ROCm portfolio of libraries and additional support for the AI community.
  • AMD embedded products are delivering optimized performance across a diverse set of markets:
    • Adoption of AMD embedded products is expanding in enterprise storage, as Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced that AMD EPYC Embedded Series processors are powering its new modular storage solution, HPE Alletra Storage MP.
    • AMD introduced two additions to the automotive-grade XA Artix UltraScale+ family: XA AU10P and XA AU15P FPGAs, which are optimized for use in ADAS sensor applications.
  • AMD announced new Ryzen PRO 7040 Series Mobile processors, the most advanced x86 processors for premium Windows 11 business laptops and mobile workstations. AMD also announced the Ryzen PRO 7000 Series processors for desktop, bringing the power of "Zen 4" and AMD RDNA 2 integrated graphics to professional desktop users.

They all are, for now:

"NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today reported revenue for the first quarter ended April 30, 2023, of $7.19 billion, down 13% from a year ago"

It's all in the forecasts, not actual sales numbers. There will be hard corrections if the miracle of AI doesn't deliver soon.

4th quarter. If AMD was going to sell MI300 GPUs next quarter, it would have been seen on their guidance for the next quarter. We don't see it. We will have to wait for their 3th quarter financial result and their quidance for the 4th quarter to see if there is interest for MI300 cards.

They all are, for now:

"NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today reported revenue for the first quarter ended April 30, 2023, of $7.19 billion, down 13% from a year ago"

Wait what? No. Nvidia is reporting in about 20 days their second quarter financial. The fact that analysts where expecting around 7 billions for second(current) quarter and Nvidia announced that they expect to make 11 billions, means that they are not just NOT missing the AI wave, they are the AI wave.

Nvidia gave a forecast for one quarter AI revenue only. What happens beyond that we'll see.

Medium term what matters is developing products with LLMs and getting people to pay for them.

ChatGPT can be used for free etc, they'll need paid users to be sustainable obviously.

Also what's the $800m difference between gaap and not ?

Well, the stock is up after hours, so it seems that people with bags of money are optimistic.

AMD P/E Seems to be 487 according to Google. Possibly it's slightly overvalued... Or maybe profitability will massively improve in the next few years.

Using AI as many times in conference calls still seems to be the winning strategy regardless of the financial results.

The stock market makes no sense whatsoever to me. Companies report decent earnings, shares crash, companies announce losses, share go up, etc...
It's purely just gambling and in this case, right now, it seems to be AMD AI vs Nvidia AI.
